No participation in IRIS application

Despite a topical change occurring the last few days, I recently confirmed my interest in being part of a research application initiated by a researcher from IRIS - International Research Institute of Stavanger, but today I was told I will not be included in the application after all, due to disagreement about deep ecology.

Board meeting and seminar of UiS

Thursday this week I took part in the seminar and board meeting of University of Stavanger. The day included three events:

1. A joint board meeting with the International Research Institute of Stavanger (IRIS)
2. A brief regular board meeting
3. A strategy seminar for UiS, with the board members giving input to the revision process with regard to the university's strategy up to 2020

I made use of my voice at all three occasions, which all took place at the Stavanger Concert Hall. The regular board meeting approved the university's preliminary financial report for 2012, and appointed Elaine Munthe as Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Education, appointed Eric Brun as Head of Department at Department of Industrial Economics, Risk Management and Planning, and re-appointed Truls Engstrøm as Head of Department at the Norwegian School of Hotel Management.
